My Take
Because students are so accustomed to using the QWERTY keyboard and drag and drop feature, students are able to be very productive in a short amount of class time. The templates are attractive and the variety motivates students while encouraging creativity.
How I Use It
Pages easily takes the place of MS Word when using iPads in class. Students are able to create a variety of work using the preloaded templates including posters, flyers, newsletters, resumes and brochures (just to name a few). Pages allows students to create a passcode for their work, which solves the problem of student work being on shared iPads. Cloud-based sharing and AirDrop make submitting work easy.
